Chris Bull
Chris
first started ceramics in the mid 1960's at High Wycombe College
of Art and later moved on to Langley College to take GCE in Design
and Ceramics. This was followed by a Studio Potters Course at Langley.
She is currently a tutor for Adult Education and GCE A' level
students at a number of schools and colleges in the High Wycombe
area, including Sir
William Ramsay School which has Art College Status, and also
teaches the Studio Potters Course at East
Berkshire College.
She works in her workshop at Askett where she finds the ever increasing
fascination for clay, glazes and fire continues. Her most recent
work, shown at the Craftsman Potters Association in London and sold
at Bonham's Contemporary Ceramics Auction in Kensington, is a combination
of these elements, including Raku, and heavily reduced copper glazes.
She has exhibited on a number of occasions at the CPA, and sells
her work at galleries in and around London and afar afield as Bath
and Hereford. She also supplies a local garden design contractor In-x-Scapes as part of their Lifestyle initiative.
She also presents her work locally when she joins with one or two
other craftsmen in local exhibitions.
She has been an active member of local Pottery and Sculpture Groups
and has served as chairman of two of the Groups.
Her work is now extremely varied in nature, and she constantly feels
the need to move on' to explore the wonderful world of ceramics.
Her current range includes large garden pieces, copper glazed Raku
ware and functional scraffito ware.
